Fixing tables

[dp]

Hi,

Occasionally I get a message "memo file invalid or missing" . In 7 it mostly
was easy to fix by

Use mytable
copy to temp
zap
append from temp

and the memo file usually was ok. In 9 it does not let you open the file at
all so you cannot do the above. How to fix the file then in 9?

TIA

Have you tried SET TABLEVALIDATE TO 0 ?
